  1. No, the only lions that can pull off that pose are the Yellow and Blue lions from the Toynami Ultimate EX. And it’s black lion can do a decent sit as well but not as good as the other two. It’s a great piece even though it’s Toynami.
  2. Right now you can get 15% off eBay toy purchases with code PLAYTIME15 and also get 8% on eBay bucks. Using that, you can score a knock off Hikaru with SSPs for about $142 shipped and also get $13.20 back in eBay bucks.
  3. Definitely, the EX is a lightweight compared to the mostly die cast Arcadia. It can be difficult to find a balance when posing and the elbows spin too easily. But I’m willing to forgive a lot considering the difficulty of making a perfect transformation toy of this design with those spindly legs. I wouldn’t pay full boat for it, but as it continues to slide into clearance prices I may pick up another.
  4. More comparison between the EX and Arcadia garlands. They are roughly the same length in bike mode but the extending calves of the EX give it a clear height advantage.
  5. I really like it! I’ve been wanting to pair these two bikes in a diorama since seeing this race track drawing in the May 1991 Hobby Japan. Just need to source some track tech and an umbrella girl figure.
  6. Snagged the Freeing EX=Garland at a pretty good discount. Maybe I got a better copy than standard because it stays together fairly well. And was happy to find it’s basically the same size as the Arcadia 1/24. They look great together. I figure with all the scale shenanigans the manufacturers pull to try to fit the rider inside, the numbers don’t mean much.
  7. Got the Minmay and it’s really well done. I think the head on the Rick is a terrible Hikaru likeness though, not even close. I’m going to order it just for the body and use these CMs heads on them instead.
  8. They’re getting really good with the rubber muscle suits these days. I like the new style but wish they had kept the glyph designs embedded in Hellboy’s skin like in The Golden Army.
  9. Tekering, what is that cave diorama from a did you buy or build it?
  10. I actually really like Predator 2, it had real character development and a coherent storyline, two things The Predator utterly lacks. And Predators was at least watchable. But this piece of crap movie is so bad that I’m taking the Neca figure back to Target tomorrow for a refund. It kinda sucks anyway.
  11. Well, they basically ceased production and have not tooled the other prototypes they had shown, like the rest of the paladin figures. They say they are waiting to amass retail orders but considering that Target and Walmart clearanced it all out and gave the shelf space to other lines, that happening seems doubtful. Read about it here: http://www.denofgeek.com/us/culture/voltron/273657/where-are-the-rest-of-the-voltron-action-figures
  12. I hope they do bring in Vehicle Voltron if there is another season. Too bad Playmates already bailed on this license though.
  13. Actually, something else did come out, these pics of him at a pedo themed party. And it pretty much shut down most of his defenders.
  14. When did you get a shipping notice? I got a shipping notice on mine back on 7/27 but the tracker shows it was basically just the creation of the UPS label and still says waiting for pick up. Ridiculous.
  15. Yeah, looks like no review above two stars and most are ones. This guy was pretty ticked off: Getter or transformation It is a manufacturer that can not think even a decent deformation or a locking mechanism by riding in condition with movable deformation. You do not have to hang with just extra hinges Cost multiplication Does not it cost expensive or is it a customer?I checked leg gimmicks but if it is a large thigh or knee part size, you can get clearance with a sliding mechanism like normal garland or regios. I am wondering why it is possible to be such a joint with no holding power in the top heavy including die casting. Is it not good if the arms are built in both large drama types that incorporate both daggers and missiles? It is too costly cost. Are you stupid? I am stupid!Do not Lick customers!
  16. Doesn’t Steve Trevor coming back kind of contradict and negate the scene in Justice League where Batman berates WW for retreating from the world for 100 years after Trevor’s death (which she acknowledges)? Lame.
  17. Is this the same company as Kid Robot? I received a UPS notice and tracker of a delivery from Kid Robot but i didn’t order anything from them. Wondering if it’s the Minmay figure that I did preorder.
  18. I was pleasantly surprised by it. Definitely much more anime-ish than the first. Clear influence from Evangelion on the white drones and what happens with them. And the look of the big baddie and it’s objective at the end is straight out of Shin Getter Robo Armageddon.
  19. They owe Kawamori a credit and royalty since the giant hologram pointing at Gosling's character is a straight rip from Macross Plus.
